Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022) User Reviews (703)

Dreamworks best movie besides Shrek and How to Train your Dragon!

[siggirules · 9/10 · 7 December 2022]

I did not have many expectations going into this with my daughter, I've seen the main Shrek movies but noon of the other Puss in Boot's spin-offs. I was shocked at how good a movie this was when the credits rolled!

The story itself is functional, but all characters are given meaningful and relatable arcs. Between the melanchonic Puss reaching the end of his days as a great hero, his always positive dog sidekick and the 3 antagonistic parties trying to reach the magical macguffin there is a lot going on and none of it feels forced in.

The two greatest assets the movie brings is it's humor and the stunning action scenes. First of all, this movie has bite, it is back to the tone of the first Shrek movie with lots of jokes that are working on a children and adult level of understanding. While the story is easy to follow for kids, the themes explored are relatively mature and will keep adults engaged.

Secondly, while Disney/Pixar movies lately fail to make action exiting with their polished CGI style, Puss in boots goes full Into the Spiderverse once a fight breaks out. Glorious 12 frames per second, hyper stylized with all the filters and gimmicks necessary to elevate the big set-pieces to something truly special and memorable. Especially Puss's duels against a mysterious bounty hunter are the highlights.

While not entirely original, the Puss in Boots: The Last Wish combines the edgy humor of Shrek with the visual wonders of Into the Spiderverse and strings it along a relatively matured heroes journey coming to it's end tale that is closer to Logan than any other animation I can think off. Oh and just in case (not that I personally care much about it) there is zero political agenda to be found here to be a distraction of the perception.

Aged like fine wine.

Puss and Boots the last wish is a fantastic sequel and inarguably better than the charming first outing. The animation is brilliant, characters are charming, pacing is tight, very funny and the action is excellent. Not to mention there is a ton of heart. If I were to nitpick I think one of the antagonists trumps the other. One is played for more comedic purposes while the other is an Intimidating physical presence for boots to contend with. The Last Wish has something for everyone and it's probably one of the better animated movies I've seen in sometime. I really don't want to get into the story to avoid spoilers because the movie was a lot of fun, and it's best to go into it fresh. If anyone is considering taking their family to see the Last Wish like I did then The Last Wish is an easy recommendation. 100% worth the money. Two thumbs up for team friendship.

I was actually moved by the existential crisis of this cartoon cat

[MissSimonetta · 8/10 · 11 February 2023]

CS Lewis once said a children's story that only appeals to children is not a good children's film in the least. I can think of plenty of crummy kids' movies that illustrate the point, but I'd rather bring up a positive example-- PUSS IN BOOTS: THE LAST WISH.

I cannot believe I am saying this about a Shrek spinoff, but this movie really is that good. It works on so many levels: as a high-speed comedy, all the jokes land, but as a story about mortality and the meaning of life, this film is oddly compelling and mature. The plot literally involves Puss running from the personification of death, hoping to cling to his life. In between the funny scenes, I was actually moved by the existential crisis of this cartoon cat. That's no small feat.

This is truly a movie kids and adults can cherish.

Yeah, it's that good.

[benjaminskylerhill · 10/10 · 22 December 2022]

I did not expect the sequel to a decent spin-off Dreamworks film from over a decade ago to be one of the most poignant, introspective, genuinely hilarious, and heartwarming films of the year. But here we are.

After an overly cheesy, somewhat clunky opening sequence, The Last Wish very quickly begins developing its zany assortment of characters into distinct quirky personalities with sympathetic desires and clear goals. The film juggles several character arcs and it's almost miraculous how it successfully handled all of them with proper set up and satisfying, emotionally weighty payoffs.

The screenplay is wacky, witty, and also bursting with heart as it deals with weighty themes of trusting others and finding purpose in any circumstances. And it tackles these themes in ways that are always understandable to all ages but never insultingly oversimplified.

What I also didn't expect was that the action sequences would be so well-choreographed and beautifully animated, and that the movie would often be terrifying and violent at times.

I adored this film. I think it's Dreamworks' best film since Megamind and it's easily the best true family film of the year.

HOW IS THIS MOVIE THIS GOOD?!!!!

[xxaxxu · 10/10 · 18 December 2022]

I genuinely cannot believe I'm saying this, but this is one of the best movies of the year, so far, it's neck to neck with The Menu for me.

Incredible on every front.

The animation is incredible. I'm beyond thrilled that Dreamworks decided to ditch the hyper-realistic animation style, and just went for a style that would perfectly represent the emotions and craziness that this movie needed.

The characters, EVERY SINGLE ONE, was so fleshed out, and they all felt like they had a purpose being there. We didn't get the usual Shrek style, Grimm fairytale cameos for no reason, on the contrary, they all played an important role in the story, and in the overall message.

This movie also had me so emotional, no spoilers, but it's the way the creators handle their characters, with such sincerity and heart.

Finally, the action, and the plot itself, it was go go go from the get go, i haven't seen a more well paced film all year, i think that is my favourite part of the dilm (Avatar 2 could take some notes)

Overall, it was truly such a blast, so fun, heartfelt, FUNNY, genuine, with a great message at its core.

Darker, Better and Brings my childhood back

[GusherPop · 10/10 · 22 December 2022]

"Puss in Boots: The Last Wish" is as spry and light on its feet as its titular feline. The inherently alluring paradox of the swashbuckling kitty from the "Shrek" universe remains firmly in place 11 years after his first solo feature. He's a dashing adventurer, a charmer with the ladies, feared and renowned throughout the land -- but he's also unbearably adorable as he laps up milk from a shot glass with his pinky, sandpapery tongue. As always, the charismatic and sensitive Antonio Banderas finds just the right tone in exploring this furry animated figure's suave and silly sides. "The Last Wish" expands the roster of ridiculously talented supporting players from the Oscar-nominated 2011 original "Puss in Boots." Joining Banderas and his longtime friend and co-star Salma Hayek Pinault are Florence Pugh, Olivia Colman, Ray Winstone, Da'Vine Joy Randolph, and John Mulaney, among many others. They bring a surprising amount of substance to what might have been a purely playful endeavor. But of course, the fast-paced humor and elaborate visuals are the main draws of director Joel Crawford and co-director Januel Mercado's film. The film's aesthetics may rely too heavily on anime influences, especially during the action sequences, but the vibrant colors and rich textures are a delight. From the moss growing on a fearsome forest giant to the shiny silkiness of Puss' whiskers blowing in the wind, "The Last Wish" offers a variety of eye-popping details. And it frequently features dramatic shadows and subtle dissolves to transition from past to present or one scene to the next. But the film also manages to convey messages of selflessness and teamwork in a way that doesn't feel heavy-handed or cloying. And the stellar voice performances and dazzling visuals keep things so engaging you won't need a laser pointer or a catnip-stuffed mouse toy to entertain you.

Not only fun, but heartfelt too.

[Genti26 · 8/10 · 13 December 2022]

This is genuinely one of my favorite films of the year. I hope it gets real recognition and people don't dismiss it as "just an animated film".

I've always liked DreamWorks films, with my favorite being How to Train Your Dragon 2, but after rewatching the first Puss in Boots movie, I wasn't expecting much for this sequel, eleven years after. I like the first installment for sure but it's certainly a lot simpler in story than I'd prefer. This one however, has such a rich emotional aspect to it that I truly felt something during it.

There were also certain scenes involving a wolf character that were quite creepy. I think kids will have a lot of fun with this movie, but at the core this is a story about family and understanding the value of things and/or people who are in front of you already. And that's a message that every person of any age can get something out of. The voice acting is top-notch and the animation is such a ridiculous step-up from the last time. This is such a cool direction to take this sequel into and I dug it all the way through.

There's really not much negative to say other than the ending feels like it should have been slightly more concise, but that's it. I loved it and I'll rewatch it as soon as it releases on VOD.

A cute family friendly adventure!

[parksiet · 7/10 · 28 December 2022]

"Puss in Boots: The Last Wish" is a fun adventure in the "Shrek" universe! I gotta admit I have not seen the original film, and don't cherish the "Shrek" films as much as many do... so I went into this with mild expectations. And honestly, I had a good time; it was cute! Do I think it was as good as many other reviewers have suggested? No. But it was enjoyable, lighthearted fun that is perfect for families with kids! The voice cast was awesome, especially John Mulaney and Florence Pugh as the villains, Jack Horner and Goldilocks respectively. And of course Antonio Banderas as Puss in Boots is iconic as ever!

The animation here was gorgeous too, honestly it was one of my favourite parts. I love that major studio animated movies are finally starting to take more risks with their animation style, moving away from the typical 3D CGI realism. You gotta respect "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" for starting this trend and showing that different styles can work! I loved that this had a more watercolor, storybook illustration look to it, it really worked for the story and was employed in such creative ways! I would love to see the "Shrek" movies take this on, but alas they seem to have established their own look. This movie just looked so cool, so distinct in its own style, it really felt like I was watching a story in a fairy tale world.

Now, of course I have to admit I didn't love this movie. Something about it felt off to me, I couldn't seem to see where the acclaim was coming from. Sure, it was fun, it was cute, and I enjoyed myself while watching, but I never felt like I truly connected with the film. The opening scene felt a little jumbled to me, rapidly going from a musical sequence, to comedy for kids, to an action scene and I wished it would've let me settle into the story a bit first. I get this is a movie primarily for kids, but with most animation they tend to make parts enjoyable for the parents and older audiences as well. I don't really feel that here - they tried with the themes and the deeper storyline - but it never actually worked in my eyes. Everything felt very kid-focused, which isn't a bad thing, it just meant I wasn't the core audience and so it makes sense why I wouldn't enjoy it as much. I have to say, the kids in my theatre seemed to be having a blast! I'm sure this is a great movie for families with children, it just wasn't as good as I was told it would be.

I think the movie tried to do a bit of what Pixar is known for, the whole "trying to be deep" thing. The movie involves Puss in Boots coming to terms with death, and it seemed to be somewhat shallow, it never truly dove into this aspect of the story. Instead, the storyline is very linear and somewhat dull where it is just about the characters traveling to their destination and the villains sometimes catching up and then combat ensuing. And the physical goal literally being the spiritual goal just makes the inevitable plot point of "maybe I don't need the thing I wanted all long and it's the friends I made along the way that count" seem all the more predictable. Even Puss' relationship with the side characters is unchallenging. Although he is deeply flawed, his companions never seem to care about that and forgive him all the time. The chemistry of the characters was just nowhere as endearing as in "Shrek". Still the adventure was quite fun, I just didn't think the themes clicked as it felt like they were trying to be deep in a way that is not as organic and surprising as a film like Pixar's "Up", "Finding Nemo" or even DreamWorks' "How to Train Your Dragon".

Perhaps I am being too harsh, I feel like this review is sounding more negative than anything. I really did have fun with it, and overall would give it a thumbs up, it's an enjoyable way to spend an hour and a half. The animation was really cool, the voice cast was great, and man I loved the little nods to the "Shrek" movies even if I was never a huge fan of those. If nothing else, this movie did make me really hopeful for another "Shrek" film. I do enjoy this fairy tale world and the creative animation they used to tell the story!

My pick for Best Picture 2022

[ericstevenson · 10/10 · 26 December 2022]

The last "Puss In Boots" movie was made 11 years ago, as well as the last film the "Shrek" franchise, so surely they couldn't make something really great again, right? The story is pretty standard, as Puss In Boots is down to his last life and tries to get a wish on a magic star. It seriously has some of the best action I've seen in a long time. I don't even think this film qualifies as a comedy. It really is more like a straightforward action flick. Even its first five minutes are nothing but nonstop action from Frame 1 to Frame...whatever.

This film does not take place before the Shrek films. We get to see some brief flashbacks with Shrek himself, albeit only for a few seconds. The villains are Big Jack Horner, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and a wolf. I believe a poster called this character the Big Bad Wolf, but he isn't that, even if he's technically based on him (he's actually DEATH). Every one of these villains are unique with their own motivations. Every minute makes me eager to find out what happens next.

So...who does get the wish in the end? Nobody! Everyone (except Big Jack Horner) realizes they had what they wanted after awhile. It even begins with another sequel hook with Puss In Boots going back to Far Far Away Land. Another Shrek/Puss In Boots movie? If it has such amazing cel shading animation with the best CGI of all, it deserves as many films as possible! ****

A visual delight. A script that could have given more.

[jp_91 · 7/10 · 12 December 2022]

"Puss in Boots: The Last Wish" is a film whose animation is excellent, full of colorful and detailed scenes, but its script becomes tired in some scenes and even predictable, although its positive message on issues of personal relationships stands out. The characters are fun, highlighting Goldilocks and the three bears. Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek manage to entertain by lending their voices to the protagonists. Puss in Boots is a fun character but his story lacks more irreverence like in "Shrek". The soundtrack perfectly recreates the essence of a fairy tale. "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish" is a visual delight with a passable script that could have been better.

unexpectedly GOOD for adults and kids

[ucladude1 · 9/10 · 24 December 2022]

FYI, surprisingly, kids understood jokes aimed at adults. Yes, there are spots of the movies where it's hard to know what they understand because ideas aim at us adults. But, I think the kids still understood it enjoyed the deeper parts.

Personally, the movie was very fitting. Like Puss, I'm also trying to find out who I am and who I want to be in life. This was our journey.

The stories have great connections romantically, between rivals and newcomers. The stories are about bringing all of us together despite what happened in the past. The stories come together about building a better future for ALL OF US. Let go of selfish wants and desires, focus on OTHERS and let's work together for a better future!

Good kids movie

[mcdonaldparis-83809 · 6/10 · 22 February 2023]

I wanted to love this movie, but there's not much to love. They throw in an annoying Olaf ripoff who brings nothing to the film. Donkey was at least voiced by a comedian and while I love Harvey Guillen, this wasn't the role for him (or probably anyone honestly).

The villain is pretty cool, though he has one standout scene and is then reduced to a background chatter showing up every 20 minutes to remind you he exists. They muddy the water with 2 other groups of villains, one of which is just evil for the sake of being evil.

All in all, it's fine. It's no Shrek 2, but perhaps those standards are too high to hold this up to.

I must have watched a different movie from everyone else

[siegenpiebretzke · 2/10 · 28 December 2022]

The overwhelming positive reviews tell me one of three things: 1) There is a secret, better version of this film that I didn't watch, 2) Dreamworks paid for hundreds of bot reviews, or 3) most people's bar for American animated films is so low it might as well be in the ground. Suffice it to say, this movie absolutely did not live up to the hype. Puss in Boots 2 is not only NOT as amazing as everyone is saying it is, is actually a pretty bad movie. Mediocre at best. If you love animated movies then go watch one of the movies that made you fall in the love with the medium again. This movie does not deserve your money. Watched on December 27, 2022.

A Darker DreamWorks

[3xHCCH · 8/10 · 8 December 2022]

Puss in Boots (Antonio Banderas) becomes a popular folk hero in his country. After his latest conquest of a giant monster, he was killed by a freak accident with a church bell. When he woke up, Puss realized that he already spent eight of his nine lives, and that he only had one more life to live. At first he did not think it was a big deal, but a traumatic encounter with a sinister-looking Wolf (Wagner Moura) made Puss decide to retire from adventures.

While living the life of a spoiled lazy lap cat, Puss learned about a Wishing Star from the family of Goldilocks (Florence Pugh) and the Three Bears (Ray Winstone, Olivia Colman and Samson Kayo) who were looking for it. Puss decided to search for the Star himself in order to wish for his nine lives back. Along with Puss on his quest were his old flame Kitty Softpaws (Selma Hayek) and a nameless little orphan therapy dog (Harvey Guillen).

This sequel to the first "Puss in Boots" solo spin-off movie came out 11 years after the original. There is a very evident difference that can be noted in the style of its animation. On top of the 3D computer-generated images of the characters, there is now an additional 2D artistic style as if they were hand-painted (first seen in "The Bad Guys"), especially noted most prominently in the character of the Wolf, and even in Puss during their showdown fight scenes.

The voice work of the actors really captured the personalities of the characters. Antonio Banderas's voice had the bravado, arrogance and charisma of Puss, whom we've known and loved since he made his first appearance in "Shrek 2" (2004). Selma Hayek lends her sexy sassiness to the voice of the skillful thief Kitty Softpaws, who held a grudge against Puss. Florence Pugh's characteristic raspiness was easily recognizable in Goldilocks's voice.

Like before, the characters Puss encounters were all fairy tale and nursery rhyme characters. The choice for main antagonist was Jack Horner, the boy who sat in the corner eating his pies, but he was not little here anymore. He was not as famous as others, so some kids may need a review of his rhyme to refamiliarize. There were a trove of Disney character references you'll have fun identifying, from Mary Poppins, Alice in Wonderland and Jiminy Cricket.

Very notable in this latest Dreamworks release is the darkness of the plot, which was also reflected in the artwork styles and situations depicted. Only in trickles, but this must be the first time blood was seen in a Dreamworks animated film. The language and humor used was also more mature, even with some assumed expletives bleeped out. As the topic of death played a major part in the story, scenes with the Wolf can be very scary for little kids. 8/10.

PS: The new DreamWorks Animation opening logo precedes this film. It was quite nostalgic to see the DreamWorks boy seeing famous DreamWorks characters old an new -- like Toothless, Po, Boss Baby, a Troll, the Bad Guys and of course, Shrek with Fiona and Donkey -- as his crescent moon flew him around in space before settling in its place.

Haven't seen an animated movie like this in years

[amenzli · 10/10 · 15 December 2022]

Wow ! Dreamsworks has always been good with sequels and I think it is safe to say this might be their best sequel to date .

Without giving much of the plot there are many new characters and fairy tales introduced here and they actually help elevate the story alongside with being so cute ,loveable and hilarious .

Appealing to both kids and adults ,this movie was a treat ,it mixes being a fun continuation to the story without repeating the same tropes of the first movie and also handles heavy topics without feeling grim ,dark or taking itself too seriously.

Highly recommended and worth every penny 👌

Finally!! A genuinely good animated kids movie!!

[nicolasroop · 9/10 · 7 December 2022]

Seems that these days all the animated kids movies are more or less the same, with very few exceptions in recent years and it's grown tiresome. It's always potty humor and/or a weak storyline that either has adults rolling their eyes or falling asleep. This is one of the exceptions.

With pitch perfect voice acting from all parts of the cast, to the way it makes old story concepts feel relatively fresh and funny again, this one is a winner. Best of all was the film doesn't rely on low brow, toilet humor to sell it's laughs. My favorite of which came from a certain play on Jiminy Cricket that I'm sure will have you in stitches.

The animation had me a bit underwhelmed which is why I deduct a star, but that is subjective, so I leave that bit up to the viewer to decide for themselves. For me, when the action gets going, it felt glitchy and incomplete, but some people might enjoy that style.

Overall, I highly recommend this one when it releases later this month. It's definitely a film that both kids and parents will find entertaining and enjoyable. I know I enjoyed it.

4.5 retired heros out of 5.

A return to form indeed.

[Avwillfan89 · 8/10 · 21 January 2023]

I was not at all interested in watching this film. As most of the animated movies from the major studios, especially from DreamWorks have been extremely dull and very samey. I can't think of a good one that I've seen since How To Train Your Dragon 2.

But then I read all of the brilliant reviews and decided to give this one a go. And to my surprise, it was definitely a welcome change.

Puss gets an existential crises when Death (AKA the Big Bad Wolf) comes for his last life after Puss has frivolously wasted his 8 other ones. It's interesting how dark it gets in these scenes, with Puss, who has never been afraid of death, gets scared and has a wakeup call. And learns to value life and the lives of others a bit more.

Although it doesn't go as far as I thought it would when it came to heavy themes and character development, it certainly reminded me of the good old days of DreamWorks animation. So I absolutely consider this film a step in the right direction for this studio.

Box office performance is criminal. One of 2022's best movies.

[TheAzureSky · 7 January 2023]

What is to say that hasn't already been praised about this movie?

The two villains are incredible, especially the side villain. It's refreshing to have a straight main villain. No lame tragic or misunderstood villains like in Disney (even lack of villains). Just a classic villain.

The B plot with Goldilocks and her bear family was great. I suspect it was to make the movie feel more full, otherwise it would've felt too empty with only Jack Horner versus Puss.

Puss's side characters were great. I thought the dog was going to be an annoying ADHD character but he's got depth.

90% of the jokes land. The pacing is brisk. Didn't realize it was almost 2 hours because it was so engaging. The driving theme of the story is excellent and well handled and not too in your face.

Please don't let this gem miss you.

I Don't See the Hype

[scootm16 · 6/10 · 31 December 2022]

This movie was alright. The animation is the highlight, even though the style they use is just ripped off from a much better movie: 'Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse'. I haven't seen the first 'Puss In Boots', but I would put this one beneath all the 'Shrek' movies, and 'Shrek' 3 and 4 aren't very good.

The story is fast-paced, but the way it unfolds is very bland and uninspired. The attempted humor missed 95% of the time because it's lazyily written and geared solely towards 5-year-olds. If you're an adult, you're not going to find much to enjoy in regards to the story or comedy.

It was nice seeing Antonio Banderas have fun with the voice acting. All the new characters introduced and their motives were all pretty bad and just seemed thrown into the movie for no real reason since they held no weight or attachment to the 'Shrek' universe. My niece and nephew enjoyed it at least.

6.1/10.

Simply outstanding

[cardsrock · 9/10 · 16 July 2023]

I can't say I expected this from a Puss in Boots sequel 12 years later. The Last Wish is a true standout feature of 2022 and one of the best animated films in some time.

The new art style, clearly inspired by Spider-Verse, feels right at home in this world. I love how it blended the typical CGI look with the new, more hand-drawn style. That combined with some top notch humor and an incredibly emotional story makes this a terrific watch. The film is very singularly focused on Puss's arc, leading to some very satisfying story beats. I had a wonderful time watching this movie and I can't recommend it enough.

Don't get all the hype, but a good movie

[alimax-61551 · 7/10 · 12 April 2023]

I'm not sure why this people look at this movie as a masterpiece. Don't get me wrong, it's a good, solid movie but I don't think it's anything spectacular. The animation is really nice to look at, and fights are fluid and intense. The character designs are well made, the music is good, and the storyline is decent. The jokes are also on point most the time so overall, I don't see anything the movie did bad. That being said, I also don't see anything the movie did exceptionally well over any other animated movies I've seen. The story isn't groundbreaking or anything, and while the fights (especially puss vs death) are really entertaining to watch, I do think this movie is a little generic at times. I do recommend watching this movie, but I feel if you go in with expectations for this being a 9/10 or 10/10 movie, you might come out feeling a little disappointed. It's good, really good, but not amazing.

Wasn't expecting such a good movie

[gpx_fto · 10/10 · 28 January 2023]

I'm a 37 year old male with no kids and I loved this movie. I've never seen any other puss in boots movie (never thought I would either) but the reviews of this movie intrigued me enough to check it out.

If you like "How to train your dragon" you'll enjoy this too. It's a fun, engaging and enjoyable feel good movie with a great message. Loved all the characters from popular fairy tales being the cast in this film. It was funny, engaging, light and serious enough to make a grown man come here and write this review.

Good movie. Never thought I'd watch this as an adult let alone be reviewing it.

Good!

[No-Life-101 · 6/10 · 7 January 2023]

I noticed that the animation and art style would change during the film, and it took some getting used to. At first, I thought it was my eyes playing tricks but it was just the effects. The character designs were good and I like how they put their spin on the fairytales and nursery rhymes. I loved the wolf's design the most, he was such a good character and I looked forward to seeing him whenever he showed up.

The storyline, however, was okay but it felt a bit meh. I wasn't fully invested in it. The character development was nice and steady throughout the film too. Also, the action scenes looked pretty cool.

Watchable but not great

[mluinstra · 5/10 · 7 January 2023]

The first Puss & Boots was good, but this movie was just "okay" and nothing more.

Puss is on his last of 9 lives and journeys to a fallin star to wish for more lives.

The animation is subpar compared to the first movie, and the dialog is very bland when compared to the first movie as well.

Some jokes land but most of them don't. I'm not sure where all these high ratings are coming from? They must have budgeted for the purchasing of bot votes.

The last third of the movie seemed way to scary for most kids. I'm surprised it got a pg rating. The ending was very dark and scary for most young viewers.

Anyways, this movie is watchable, but just barely. I will never watch it again, and if I knew what I know now, I would not have bothered watching it.

I got what I wished for; no magic required.

[Entertainmentsparadise · 9/10 · 12 December 2022]

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish provides a fun adventure with meaningful lessons and tons of vibrant action. Donde está la Leche?

The first 30 minutes of the movie are filled with your typical Puss as he sings, dances, and fights with his ever-so-charismatic yet cocky personality. He is quickly humbled when he finds out he needs to be more careful with his life, and this is where I was instantly hooked.

Then enters the big bad wolf, from the wolf's menacing character design, skin trembling voice to the life-threatening fighting style. Wolf was one of the fantastic antagonists. I questioned whether this would be too much for the younger audience because the wolf's scenes struck fear in our beloved Puss. Although, as a viewer, we know nothing serious will happen, I felt this was a strong enough case for the plot.

It didn't end there; we are introduced to various fairytale Characters. I am not going to spoil too much.

Overall, the movie is fast-paced, has adult humor, and represents a love story, greed, and the beauty of friendship.

Verdict: Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is a fun time for the family; I would suggest watching it if you have younger ones. Even if you don't have younger ones and are a fan of the Shrek universe, it's worth the watch. Shoutout to Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek for there wonderful performances!
